Raiders of the Lost Ark – UK IMAX screening dates

Paramount Pictures has confirmed the IMAX cinemas screening Steven Spielberg George Lucas’ Raiders of the Lost Ark.

The film, which introduced cinema audiences to Harrison Ford’s Indiana Jones, will have a limited one-week release beginning September 21, 2012 ahead of a Blu-ray release of all four Indy films on 8th October 2012.

Raiders has been restored for IMAX and Blu-ray under the supervision of Spielberg and renowned sound designer Ben Burtt.

“When I saw the stunning quality of the picture and heard the enhanced sound in an IMAX theatre, I was quite literally blown away and hope that audiences will enjoy the experience as much as I did,” says Spielberg.

The Blu-ray release of Indiana Jones: The Complete Adventures includes seven hours of bonus material, including a brand new two-part documentary entitled On Set with Raiders of the Lost Ark – From Jungle to Desert and From Adventure to Legend.

Fans will also be able to enjoy rarely seen footage from the set of the film and archive interviews with Spielberg, Lucas and Ford.
